Etymology
'incorrectly-provided' originates from the combination of 'incorrectly' and 'provided', where 'incorrectly' means 'in a wrong manner' and 'provided' means 'supplied or given'.
'incorrectly' and 'provided' have been used separately in English since the Middle Ages, and their combination into 'incorrectly-provided' is a modern usage.
Initially, 'incorrectly' meant 'not correct', and 'provided' meant 'supplied'. Their combination retains the original meanings.
